Modify category/index display

[eJM]

I am using Dyna as a sort of directory. On the index page there is a list of the head categories. It looks like this currently:

http://www.enterprisejm.com/images/support/category_list.gif

Can I remove the part of the heading that says "Last Listing - Last Reply - Listings - Replies"?

Is there a setting that determines if there is an expand icon, which I don't need in this type of layout?

Can I force each category to have a space between them, just as there is a space between the category list and the statistics box?

What templates would I edit and what code would I look for to do this?

Thank you,

Jim

Yes, that can be removed from the 'ADV_DYNA' template.

Is there a setting that determines if there is an expand icon, which I don't need in this type of layout?
Do you mean the "New Entries" / "No New Entries" icons? If so, those should not be displayed when you're only showing top level header categories.

Can I force each category to have a space between them, just as there is a space between the category list and the statistics box?

Yes, you would need to modify the 'adv_dyna_categorybit_main' template and change the code in there. To add a space, your best bet would probably be to remove the table that's wrapped around the categories in your 'ADV_DYNA' template, and then either wrap a table around the code in your 'adv_dyna_categorybit_main' template, or possibly change it to use some <div> tags instead.

No, I was referring to the little icon that looks like this in my example above: http://www.enterprisejm.com/images/support/collapse_tcat.gif

Thanks for the rest. I'll work on that tonight and see what I can do.

R'gards,

Ahhh. That's not controlled by a setting, but can be removed by editing your 'adv_dyna_categorybit_main' template.
